i have never heard that 1200 was a lot. in fact, the majority of coaches i have had have told me to NEVER eat that little.

at the end of the day though, it depends on your height/weight/age. and the older we get, the less we can eat

but if you can get away with eating more - eat more.

1200 is poverty calories. I’m 43, 5’9”, 180lbs and can lose 0.5 lbs on 2000 calories a day. I’d freak out and binge if I tried to stick to 1200.

1200 is the bare minimum, certainly not a lot. I wouldn't put much faith in anything that person told you. I lost weight eating 1500 cals, and would'v been miserable on 1200.

1200 is not a lot, i eat net 1600 to lose 0.5lb per week
